Description
Guitarist /Singer David Landon has been the first call musician for the top booking agents and destination management companies in the Bay Area for over 15 years. David plays solo classical, jazz and pop guitar (both acoustic and electric) as well as leading his own jazz duo, trio and quartet. In addition, David leads a full party band with bass, guitar, drums, keyboards horns and singers that is perfect for corporate events, house parties, weddings and special events where people want to dance and party. Mr. Landon is also a captivating singer and performs both with his band as well as in more intimate solo singer/ songwriter type setting.
What makes David Landon unique is his ability to play in a multitude of styles- from jazz to classical and everything in between! If you have a special tune you want played that is not currently in David Landon's repitoire then he will learn it just for your occasion!
From Pachabell and Bach Instrumentals to the great jazz tunes of Miles Davis, Wes Montgomery and John Coltrane to songs by Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett to The Rolling Stones, the hits of Motown, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, John Mayer, Jason Mraz and so many others - he can provide just the right music for you and your guests to insure a memorable event for all who attend.
His extensive list of A list musicians also allows him to provide the client with exactly the style and sound they are looking for.
In over 20 years and thousands of shows throughout Europe and the US, David Landon have entertained in all styles and manner of music, and in every conceivable venue, whether Fortune 100 corporate events or exclusive evenings for heads of state.
He toured Europe extensively from 1988- 1993 and since his return to the states David has performed at the top night clubs and festival stages throughout the country.
A consummate professional in every sense-why trust the music for your next event with anyone less?

Feedback
- David was very professional when dealing with song selection. I had a few special requests for him to learn and he learned/played them all beautifully during my ceremony. I was very impressed by his talent and would definetly recommend him to others.
Thank you David for making my day special!
